Sunday update: Edge Motor Fest and more news

As your #1 source of news and information about The Edge, it is my pleasure to inform you of a new festival coming to that neighborhood. Edge Motor Fest, celebrating the district’s history as the original auto row in Memphis, will take place at 645 Marshall on Saturday, April 27 from noon to 6 PM. This event, coinciding with the opening of Edge Motor Museum, will feature classic cars, live music, food trucks, and local vendors. This event will be family friendly and proceeds will be used to create even more vibrancy in The Edge. I plan on being there!

Meddlesome Brewing Co. and the Peabody Hotel have announced a partnership where Meddlesome will brew a series of beers, available exclusively in the hotel’s lobby bar and the Corner Bar, commemorating the Peabody’s 150th anniversary. The first of these will be Meddling Duck Cream Ale at 5.5% ABV. Cream ale is an American beer style that was first created to mimic the pilsners of Germany.

Dustbowl Revival comes to the Halloran Centre March 2. They blend New Orleans funk, soul, pre-war blues, bluegrass, and roots music.

Couple of big events coming up at FedExForum this week. Tyler Perry’s Madea farewell tour will be in Memphis Tuesday night. Then on Saturday, KISS brings their End of the Road World Tour to the arena.

I’ve finally made it! Look at this offer to monetize my blog!

Hi there,
I just read July 2009 ? Page 2 ? Paul Ryburn?s Journal, I’ve shown it to some colleagues and we think a collaboration between us could work well.
I represent a digital marketing agency. We would like to feature a unique piece of content on your site on behalf of our client. For the privilege, we’d be happy to pay you somewhere in the region of $15.

Would you also be willing to accept link placements on pre-existing content on your site? Let me know your thoughts.
Best wishes,

Samuel

Fifteen whole doll hairs! Or “in the region of” fifteen, so maybe more like eight. Just for inserting some crappy, spammy links in a ten year old post! I’m rich! I guess I can go ahead and book that 2-week cruise to St. Kitts and Nevis!

That’s it. Time to go eat pastrami hash and deal with ass clowns. Back tomorrow with more news.
